BMW’s Color Changing Technology E-INK
BMW’s color-changing technology can change the color of the car’s body in seconds using electronic ink technology called E-Ink. Developed under the leadership of Stella Clarke, the technology enables the color change by millions of tiny capsules reacting to electrical charges. Since this technology is of a non-powered nature, it does not require any additional energy source to maintain the color of the vehicle.BMW’s i5 Flow NOSTOKANA model also emphasizes the importance of art in the automotive world with this remarkable E-INK technology. By integrating art into automobile design, vehicles become not only vehicles but also aesthetic works of art. This model can be considered as an indicator of BMW’s forward-looking vision by combining art and technology.BMW and Esther Mahlangu
The BMW i5 Flow NOSTOKANA is adorned with original designs by South African artist Esther Mahlangu. By applying Mahlangu’s geometric patterns to the vehicle, the car is transformed into a work of art and offers a visual feast to the viewers. In addition, the experiential dimension of the vehicle is enhanced with sound effects reminiscent of Mahlangu’s brush sounds, giving the feeling of a real-time creation.
